Updates from School Counseling

Guidance

This month, Ms. Abby, our school guidance counselor, has been guiding second graders through the Zones of Regulation, a key part of our SEL (Social-Emotional Learning) curriculum that helps students understand and manage their emotions. In her lessons, students are learning to recognize how different emotions feel in their bodies, from the butterflies in our stomach when we're anxious, to the tightness we might feel when we're frustrated. By picking up on these physical clues, students are becoming more aware of their emotional states, which helps them choose healthier ways to respond. It's a valuable skill that's empowering students to better manage their feelings and interactions with others.
